I could see Donte Greene's career going one of two ways.

Way #1 - gets no playing time for his first 2 -3 years ( Gerald Green )

Way #2 - gets consistent playing time like he should be getting on an 11 win team ( Jeff Green )

Not to mention all these players last name is some form of Green(e)
 
If Greene can take it to the basket more consistently it will open his outside game much more. I want to see Greene get as many minutes as he can because I think in a few years it will be rewarding to see the type of player he becomes with all his potential.

Click to expand...

absolutely but the key is that he must take it to the rack. Going off the games hes featured in so far hes more then happy to jack up 3s and jumpers all day. Hope that changes
 
Spence seems to get lost when rotating on defense lol...

Greene shows flashes, but he also shows why he needs play time... In one set he was almost shadowing Bjax trying to set a screen which probably did more harm then good. He needs to get playtime to get into the flow of the game with everyone...
 
Natt doesnt put Greene in positions to take the ball to the rim. They have been using him as a safety type of player who lurks aroud the perimeter that when a player drives and gets into trouble they can kick it out to him. When there on the fast break ( like what happened once this game ) he has the freedom to slash and make a drive to the hoop. A lot of his 3's come towards the end of shotclocks because he's like a last resort.


I blame Natt, but honestly it could be greene who decides to chill on the perimeter, just wanted to get that out there.
 
yup and this confusing coaching by Natt doesn't help his situation much either. But hopefully all will go well once theirs some more chemistry and our young guys develop.
 
I'm going to kick my TV in if I watch Spencer pin his man in the paint, call for the ball, and have teammates pass him up for a perimeter screen and end up with a bad jumpshot.
 
Refs really seem to have it out for JT now, it helps us lose games but hopefully he learns from running his mouth too much at the refs
 
gotta love Cisco. No matter what the situation he's always giving his effort out there leading the team.
 
Who do I have to kill to get Ike Diogu some playing time? He doesn't even crack the 10 man rotation? Really, Kenny Natt?
 
Have the ****ing refs forgotten that there is another team out there??? West just shoves Beno out of the way and no call! If that was JT is would have been a flagrant. Bull ****.
 
I think our terrible D comes down to coaching... We're lost in transition and rotating all too much. It tells me people aren't quite sure what they're supposed to be doing in those situations which means they aren't being coached well enough or the coaches try to change defenses far too much
 
Martin showing his hustle there by not jumping on the floor for the ball. This kid makes me question his heart/desire sometimes
